After releasing Umidigi A3 on its official website, Umidigi, the company has also hinted at two more smartphones – the Umidigi A3 Pro and the Umidigi A3 Max. In this review however, we pay attention to to the Umidigi A3 Max which will be released before Christmas.
Here’s another smartphone that tells us just how the Umidigi brand is growing. The company is making sure that it improves in three key areas – display, camera, and processor features. You will see how that too is reinforced in this review.

Here we got a smartphone with a water drop screen. It comes with a massive 6.2 inches screen which is a little bigger than what analysts first anticipated. This display comes with Full HD+ resolution and a 19.5 – 9 format. This serves to accentuate how great the smartphone is.
The smartphone is a bit higher than the A3 Plus and the lower edge is reduced to 4.25 mm. The display type is IPS LCD technology and it comes with 1080 x 2160 pixels resolution. It comes in blue and black colors.
